The saturation of society with Playboy, Hustler, Deep Throat, adult bookstores, and eventually cable television and video pornography in the 1960s and 1970s was interpreted by some activists as an orchestrated campaign to keep women in their assigned social sphere, one might argue that this was the commencement of inegalitarian pornography.
Sexual desire is powerful enough to make reason its own tool; it can subvert our rational capacity to set ends. In this way, people can endanger their dignity by undermining their reason.
it is not unreasonable to think that, in some cases, sexual desire and exercise of sexuality can undermine our rationality.
Some argue that not all pornography eroticizes inequality and focusses her critique on “inegalitarian pornography”.
